Un musée citoyen : lancement des dimanches solidaires du MICR

Le Musée est un outil au service de la communauté et du vivre-ensemble. Dès le mois de novembre, il joint à nouveau le geste à la parole en lançant les dimanches solidaires.

Tous les premiers dimanches du mois, les billets d’entrée seront collectés et donnés à la Croix-Rouge genevoise qui, elle, les redistribuera à ses bénéficiaires. Progressivement, le Musée s’associera également à d’autres partenaires locaux actifs dans le champ social. Ainsi, en achetant un ou plusieurs « billets suspendus », chacun.e pourra favoriser l’accès à la culture par un acte citoyen, de personne à personne.

De nombreuses activités et surprises attendent nos visiteur.se.s lors des dimanches solidaires : cours de yoga, visites spéciales, rencontres avec des auteur.rice.s, découverte de produits du terroir, etc. 

How does humanitarian action concern us all in our everyday lives ?

As part of its Year of Mental Health (2022–2023), the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Museum is reflecting on the passage of time with an exhibition that touches on a central theme of humanitarian action: resilience. The exhibition asks how can we access the memories of people who have lived through trauma, and how can we come to terms with a story that we didn’t choose for ourselves.

Running from 25 May to 17 September 2023, Kosovar artist Petrit Halilaj’s unique and immersive installation tells the tender, poignant and heartfelt story of his personal experience through the medium of drawing. It explores the artist’s childhood memories of the Kosovo War, as well as his hopes and dreams for the future.

A fragile balance

How do we keep our bearings in a world that’s changing at a dizzying speed? Where will we find new points of reference? What, ultimately, does our balance depend on? As part of its Year of Mental Health (2022–2023), the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Museum has given carte blanche to three contemporary Swiss artists: Denise Bertschi, Nicolas Cilins and Nina Haab. Their unique productions, together with a sculpture by Olafur Eliasson, explore our physical and mental limits and make us mindful of our inner balance. A Fragile Balance is an invitation to become fully present in the moment through a process of discovering, feeling, doing and letting go.
